So I finally have some time to sit down and give you guys some more of the game plan.

I am learning as I go with the help of a guy that used to work for the Nissan Race Team back in the 80's and has been building cars ever since.

My goal is to be low and wide. I know it is a different approach but please keep an open mind. I am extending the beams 4 inches per side and will be building new radius arms. I am only lifting the front 2 1/2 inches higher than stock(that's why I am not too worried about clocking the third member but if I end up needing to, I will) . I will be sticking with coil springs in the front and leafs in the rear, I will just be adding bigger better shocks. My buddy will be caging this front to back for me, using 1 3/4" 0.120 wall DOM.

Comments and concerns are welcomed

I like your thought on keeping a low ride height. I'm trying to acomplish the same with mine, but will stay stock width.

Well seeing as I don't have a build thread of my own or life for that matter. I am going to live vicariously through you.

Sad to say that Project EBT is dead. Marcus (BroncNasty)ended up picking up a caged ranger and I have no money to throw at this. If anyone is interested in a clean slate to start with, the body and frame are for sale. PM ME.
